Sheamus wants to become the Ultimate Grand Slam Champion at Clash At The Castle.
Now, his chance will officially come on Saturday, September 3, at WWE Clash at the Castle, and Sheamus, on the SmackDown LowDown stated that he plans on making history by becoming the Ultimate Grand Slam Champion and there’s nothing Gunther can do about it.
“It’s the one title that I haven’t won, right? That’s what you’re gonna say, isn’t it? Because it’s no secret, right? I’ve been shouting it from the rooftops for the last couple of years. In my time here in WWE the one title that has eluded me to this time is the Intercontinental Championship. I have done everything to put myself in its path. But every time I was shortchanged, every time I was passed by, until tonight here in Montreal, where I survived and overcame a Fatal 5-Way match to go on to face Gunther at Clash at the Castle in Cardiff, Wales, which is a stone’s throw away from the city where I grew up in,” said Sheamus.
“It writes itself, mate, doesn’t it? To take what someone told me before, ‘When something’s meant to happen, it’ll happen.’ Now we’re weeks away from the opportunity, that moment becoming a reality. Because Gunther, I’m promising you now, you may think that you hold all the cards, that you being the champion puts you in the top position. Well, I’m telling you, fella, in Cardiff, Wales, at Clash at the Castle, I am going to drag you into the belly of the Red Dragon. I am going to defeat you for the Intercontinental Championship, and not just to become a Grand Slam champion. No fella, you are going to be involved in history, in WWE history, When I become the first ever Ultimate Grand Slam Champion.”
Sheamus will challenge Gunther for the Intercontinental Championship at Clash At The Castle at the beginning of next month.
